an afternoon fishing trip

Arnold Gold and his wife Bobbie from LA are in town this week. Yesterday evening we went out into the backcountry for some action. action we had. First we found a fish mud. Using bucktail jigs tipped with shrimp Bobbie caught and released a nice bonefish. moving on to another larger "mud"  Arnold really got into the action. 5 nice seatrout,many jacks and ladyfish. Using the ladyfish for bait Arnold released 12 blacktip sharks and a six foot bull shark. fun stuff. As the sun was setting we motored back towards Islamorada and drifted a channel baited up for tarpon. Just as darkness settled in Arnold hooked up a monster tarpon. 40 minutes later the fish(estemated at 140 to 150lbs) was alongside the boat. good going Arnold.
